Writing the Research Paper

Writing the research paper this week had been both enlightening and frustrating. The continuation of my research into new domains gets me excited and makes me want to keep moving forward but my return to what is now old news to me is dragging me down. When I still have so much to move forward on I feel it is not yet time to reflect on what I have already learned but I far the deeper I get into my research the more reluctant I will be to compile it. Perhaps, if I had started to compile it more as I was going it would have been better but at the same time it is much easier to compile information once you start to understand where it has already led you.

When I get too frustrated with trying to write down something I already know I try to take a break by moving on to something I am in the middle of learning (something that is still creating sparks). It is a frustrating task for me but I am hoping that by the end of this grueling week I can get down what I already know leaving only to fill in the gaps of what I am still learning.
